I find no real world value in it. To me it’s a fun escape and a hobby, but I find it really harmful in a psychological sense for this to be perceived as a legitimate ‘trade’.

Do you feel the same way about things like the recent World Cup of European footsie-ball?

It all comes down to how much advertisers can pay to push their products. They eould have $100 million paint drying events if enough people would watch it.

I’m having a hard time putting it in words. Humans and sports are as old as time. As conservatives, if you can find your niche and make a living, have at it. But, we should recognize that the modern video game world such as this, breeds leftism. These are kids, and some cases grown men, who have no skills other than wiggling a mouse around and pressing keys on a keyboard. This is tailor made to incubate a leftist mind. Even if they make money, they will think like a leftist. Most of the game producers/designers are leftist SJW types if you read any interviews. It’s just as bad as the news media really.

I don’t see it as some little thing. Video Games have been a bigger money maker than Hollywood and the Music industry combined for over a decade, maybe two decades at this point. It is a bigger influence on the population than most people consider. This makes me sound like I’m against video games, and I most certainly am not, but like I said I’m having trouble finding the right words. Perhaps I’m just confused.

As someone who frequents video game related forums, anything in the modern era is leftist, period. If you want to converse with other gamers that share conservative viewpoints, well, some of the classic gaming related forums are your best bet, because you have grown men/women in their 40’s and up. Even then, the split is about 50/50, so politics as a discussion is discouraged.
